Sustainable Cities and Communities
Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable.
Sustainable transport and mobility
Central Asian University promotes sustainability, accessibility, and safety through a comprehensive transportation and mobility strategy. The university reduces private vehicle use by offering free shuttle buses from the metro and using electric golf cars for internal transport, cutting carbon emissions and easing campus congestion.
Safe and accessible campus
Pedestrian-friendly infrastructure includes marked pathways, traffic calming measures, solar-powered street lamps, and accessibility features like ramps and tactile guides to support all community members. CAU runs awareness campaigns encouraging sustainable transport habits, aiming to reduce private vehicle dependency by 50% and fully transition internal transport to electric vehicles by 2030.
Education in sustainable urban planning
In education, CAU’s Department of Architecture and Design trains students in sustainable, resilient urban planning and construction, supporting Uzbekistan’s development goals. Student exhibitions showcase innovative, sustainable projects. Sustainability is further embedded through community engagement, with student clubs organizing recycling and clean-up events, and staff trained in sustainable procurement to reinforce responsible resource use.
